The Bills enter the playoffs as one of the more dangerous teams in the field. And that can be attributed to the play of their starting quarterback, Josh Allen. The Bills didn’t have any names on their offense that really fell under the the category of a star, but somehow Allen put up the best numbers of his career and is one of the favorites to win the MVP award. In addition, the Bills have one of the most stout defenses in the NFL, allowing just over 365 yard per game, ranking them in the top-20 in the league overall.
The Denver Broncos have been one of the more surprising teams this year. And much of that has been thanks to the play of Bo Nix. After seven weeks, Nix had only completed 121 of his last 198 pass attempts for 1,082 yards. He also has a touchdown to interception ratio of 5:5 and a dismal quarterback rating of 44.0. But as the season matured, so did Nix. And he ended the year 3775 yards, 29 touchdowns, and 12 interceptions.
The oddsmakers are not giving the Broncos much of a chance in this one. The Bills are the heavy favorites in this matchup by a 8.5-point margin over Pittsburgh and the over/under marked at 47.5 points.
So whether you are rooting for a clear favorite or hoping for a miracle by the underdog, the most important thing to remember is that you must be in it to win it.
